Thank you. I just chose the last type of Mohalk carpet. Polyester but loop and cut pile mix. The cost was about $37 per yard or $3 per sq ft with 8 lb density rebond pad, including all installation/removal labor and furniture moving here in Southern California.
Thank you! After only a few months living in our brand new home and the polyester carpet is already matted down in doorways. Ugh. Should have watched your video to know to upgrade!! Next time!
I beg to differ on the Berber. I had that and the loops lay flat in the high traffic areas. It made those areas always look dirty even when they were cleaned.
Which is the most hygienic? Any suitable for allergic people? All countries health organisations advise against carpets except UK, there must be a high tech carpet here…
The best alternative to high price nylon is a short pile, heavy weight, high twist, continuous filament, stain master. Just make sure your carpet cleaner uses a gentle neutral pH cleaner or your stain guard will wind up on on your lawn.
Consider this a consumer warning. Mohawk carpet warranty is meaningless. If you have windows in your house, the sunlight voids the warranty. Yes even in the Pacific Northwest where sunlight is elusive, it can fade your new carpet in less than a few years. The company claims the 20+ year fade resistance doesn't cover any sunlight. There are exclusions for high traffic areas as well. Read it in detail.
I need carpet that will stand up to twin 3 yr olds, a messy preteen and a baby 😅 We purchased a house with the horrible looped carpet and my dog keeps getting her nails stuck on it and its a pain in the ass to actually vacuum. The loop also pulls if there is a broken look and it stains so bad.
Yes; this didn't mention that if you have pets, you will need to get cut pile and replace it fairly soon. Pets and kids and carpets do not go well together!! You would do far better to get cheap throw rugs and plan to replace them on a regular basis.
When you visit your local carpet store and find a sample you like, they will look it up on the computer and tell you how much it costs per square foot.
